Recipe Introduction


Use the jalapeno-flavored cheese spread for a spicier crust. Garnish the pizza with chopped tomato and lettuce.





List of Ingredients



• 1 lb ground beef
  
• 1 1/4 cups thick-and-chunky salsa
  
• 2 cups baking mix
  
• 1/4 cup mild salsa-flavored or jalapeno-flavored process cheese spread
  
• 1/4 cup hot water
  
• 4 medium green onions, sliced (1/2 cup)
  
• 1 cup shredded colby-monterey jack cheese
  






Instructions



1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Grease large cookie sheet. Cook ground beef in 10" skillet over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until brown; drain. Stir in salsa; remove from heat.
   
2. Mix baking mix, cheese spread and hot water until soft dough forms. Turn dough onto surface dusted with baking mix; gently roll in baking mix to coat. Shape into ball; knead about 5 times or until smooth. Roll dough into 14" circle; place on cookie sheet. Spread beef mixture over crust to within 2" of edge. Sprinkle with onions. Fold edge over beef mixture. Sprinkle with cheese.
   
3. Bake 25 to 28 minutes or until crust is golden brown and cheese is melted.
